Retreat to this gorgeous cottage in the market town of Lauder, set on the western edge of the Lammermuir Hills, 22 miles from Edinburgh. Sleeping two guests, and also welcoming one very delighted dog, this exquisite stone cottage benefits from a simply stunning, and very sizable, shared walled garden. A perfect hideaway for a couple, it makes a great base for anyone seeking all the colourful shops and varied eateries of a market town, together with access to the spectacular countryside of the Scottish borders. You could even plan a day trip into the vibrant city of Edinburgh while you are here.
Open the front door on to this charming, two-storey property and leave your shoes, bags and coats in the hall. Make your way on into the inviting, open-plan kitchen/diner, with its exposed stone walls and exquisite, farmhouse-style decor. Whip up delicious dinner for two in here then lay the table for a romantic night in together. After dinner, linger at the table for a while and perhaps find a film to watch together on the Smart TV.
Make your way up the staircase at the end of each wonderful day to watch another Smart TV in bed for a while, perhaps as a special holiday treat. Enjoy a good night’s sleep in the sumptuous king-size bed. Wake up to enjoy a hot shower before heading down to breakfast.
Take breakfast out into the delightful cottage courtyard on sunny mornings. Light the BBQ out here too on warm evenings. Pour yourselves a glass of wine as the sun goes down and stroll down the beautiful garden, which is also enjoyed by the owners of this truly individual holiday home. Parking for the cottage is on the street, on a first-come, first-served basis. There are also car parks close by.
